Count Basie - I Wish You Love lyrics

Goodbye, no use leading with our chins, this is where our story ends, Never lovers ever friends. Goodbye, let our hearts call it a day, but before you walk away, I sincerely want to say. I wish you bluebirds in the spring, to give your heart a song to sing, And then a kiss, but more than this, I wish you love. And in July a lemonade to cool you in some leafy glade, I wish you health, and more than wealth, I wish you love. My breaking heart and I agree that you and I could never be, So with my best, my very best, I set you free. I wish you shelter from the storm, a cozy fire to keep you warm, But, most of all, when snowflakes fall, I wish you love. (musical interlude) I wish you shelter from the storm, a cozy fire to keep you warm, Most of all, when snowflakes fall, hot damn, I wish you love. All kinds of love, a whole gang of love.
